GameSir Cyclone 2 Wireless Controller - 1000Hz Polling Rate, TMR Joysticks, Hall/Micro 2-in-1 Triggers for PC/Switch/Android/iOS, PC Gaming Controller with Charging Dock(White)

If you are a fan of Xbox controllers, the GameSir Cyclone 2 is perfection.I bought this to use with the Wingman FGC2 for the PS5 because the DualSense controller is the absolute worst peripheral ever created in human history. At any rate, it works great with the FGC2 adapter, no lag at all wireless, and is buttery smooth. Please search the subreddit r/Controller for a step by step guide I wrote on how to get this controller working with the FGC2 adapter. It’s tricky unless you do a couple of very specific things.I love how the controller buttons all feel like mouse clicks, because they use very similar switches for all buttons. Having the ability to switch the triggers from analog to digital input was awesome, although I wish it had a bit more travel before it clicked, sorta like the Nintendo Switch Pro controller, but it’s still awesome for games where you need lightning fast reaction time on triggers.The battery life is awesome, and the people who are complaining about bad battery life are probably using it with brightness maxed out on RGB lightning and have vibration maxed out as well. I have ran to failure 3 times since I got it, with both vibrate and LEDs off, and get about 11 hours give or take 35 minutes.The base being a pass-through for the wireless dongle is nice if you use it for PC, it will be an all-in-one dock and take up only 1 USB port.This controller is perfect in every way, I don’t think there is anything else you could possibly want/need. Go ahead and order you one, you will be so very pleased with your purchase. Oh, and I didn’t get paid or anything for this review, I am just really frustrated with crappy controllers from Microsoft and Sony, and am so glad that GameSir is stepping up with outstanding quality and products. Last thing I will say is that the joysticks are so much softer and easier to make precise adjustments, especially compared to the 8bitDo controllers which have an insanely stiff joystick, in my opinion.Thanks for reading, hope this helps someone!

I LOVE this controller. It feels premium in the hand, the buttons are tactile, triggers feel high quality, lights are cool. I much prefer the black color way to the white, wasn’t a fan of the bronze/gold accent of the white. It has mechanical switches hidden on the backside of the triggers to convert them to short actuation mouse like clicks. It has two customizable back buttons. The software seemed sketchy when downloading, but it’s intuitive and extensive for all the customization it provides your controller. You could even navigate the interface using the controller! All in all, it’s a great alternative to first party gamepads and will be my main driver for pc gaming.

This controller has many checkboxes, it emulates via bluetooth: DS4, NS Pro Controller and a basic generic controller for android.IT ONLY EMULATES XBOX CONTROLLER VIA WIRELESS DONGLE, NOT BLUETOOTH.Via wireless dongle (2.4 Ghz receiver) it does the same controllers emulations, plus, xbox.All adjustments (customizations) e profiles are done via gamesir app, and its only applicable when connected to the computer via wireless dongle, if connected via bluetooth (DS4 for example) you cannot use the customizations because the app doesn't even find the controller, the app, by the way, doesn't need to running nor even installed, once you make your customizations and presets, they are all stored in the controller itself.Bugs:- when switching from types of controllers: xbox / ds4, if connected via wireless dongle, the lights come off and even the ring light that would indicate what type of controlles is switching to (red for NS, green for XBOX, blue for DS4) it doesnt light up, you need to turn the controller off and back to xbox mode to show the lights.- double input on steam in several games I tested- I have experienced input delays via bluetooth, not via wireless dongle.Room for improvements :- The most important feature I was looking for was the ability to emulate gyro as mouse while using an xbox controller, I like a lot gyro aiming and not every game has this feature and not every game even supports other controllers if not xbox, the sad thing is that gyro aiming on this controller sucks, the gyro is amazing and works like a charm when paired via wireless dongle in DS4 mode for games that has gyro support, but the emulated gyro that is built in sucks because it has a deadzone that does not help aiming, unlike steam input that has a very precise gyro aiming but again, steam input comes with bugs.- I wish I could use it as an xbox controller via bluetooth.- There are 4 custom profiles and 4 custom lights setups, I wish I could link them, if I switch to a profile it would switch to its linked light setup.- I wish the charging base has some magnets to it to put that in place would be easier.- I wish we could turn off the lights when charging, they are obnoxious and too bright at night.What is amazing about this product:Many things actually, it does all it claims to do. Nice ergonomics if you like the xbox controller shape. Click and satisfying buttons, great D-pad, great triggers, and it is even nicer knowing they are not suffer from drifting.

Just don’t overthink it and buy this controller. The face buttons are nice and clicky, and have much less wiggle than much more expensive offerings (I’m looking at you Turtle Beach Stealth). The grips feel nice, and the controller is medium sized maybe a tad on the smaller side if anything. Shoulder buttons are good, triggers feel great, especially in the tactile click setting. The thumb sticks have a slightly heavier feel with buttery smooth movement even again the plastic shell. The d-pad isn’t bad at all and again nice and tactile. I would say it beats most first party controllers here, except maybe Nintendo’s pro controller. The only things I can think to improve are the shoulder buttons and dpad, but that’s nit picking. The most underrated part is how quickly it connects. I’m used to holding the center button and waiting a solid 10s (especially for TB). I pick this up off the dock, hit a button as it’s already starting to pair and it’s ready to go in 1 or 2s. And? It’s quality and feel swing big against many controllers double triple or even 4x the price. Honestly, I may buy a second to have another quality controller.
